deck module

"Module for interacting with deck.gl in Python.

Layer (Layer)

Configures a deck.gl layer for rendering on a map. Parameters passed here will be specific to the particular deck.gl layer that you are choosing to use. Please see the deck.gl Layer catalog (https://deck.gl/docs/api-reference/layers) to determine the particular parameters of your layer. You are highly encouraged to look at the examples in the pydeck documentation.
